I stopped watching WWE and TNA. I focus more on the Indys now, especially the Southern California ones. If you guys want good wrestling, check out CZW!

I haven't actually sat down and watched wrestling since the early 2000's. I'll flip it on every now and then but it's always so silly I turn it off.

PWG is about as good as it gets for Independent wrestling nowadays, I used to love CZW back when they had guys like Steen, Generico, Hero & Necro Butcher, about 2004-2008 i'd say. It's still a lot of fun but it's gone downhill in recent years with most of the names jumping to the WWE.

I actually drove to Iowa with my dad last summer for the wrestling hall of fame inductions at the wrestling museum there. Got to hang out and meet such greats as Terry Funk (nicest guy I've ever met (twice)), Jim Ross, Jerry Briscoe, Hacksaw Jim Duggon, Mick Foley (asshole of the year), Mad Dog Vachune, Larry "The Axe" Henning, and Baron Von Rashke! among a few others I can't remember. But got to do a meet and greet, watch a roundtable discussion with them, then hang out with them in a conference hall before going to dinner with them all and doing the induction ceremony.

Coolest thing ever was getting to ride in a elevator with my dad , Terry Funk, and I and get to talk and joke around with him.

My brother and I grew up idolizing guys like Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, Roddy Piper, Andre the Giant, Jake Roberts, etc. I continued watching with mild interest throughout the 90's and enjoyed watching the Rock, Stone Cold, Undertaker. When I started college my roommate and I would religiously get right baked every Monday night and watch Raw. Then one fateful Monday, Mae Young gave birth to a goddamn bloody rubber hand. WTF? That episode of Raw stopped that ritual right there. Weirdest, stupidest shit I've ever seen.

I can't think of any CZW wrestler that has gone to WWE?
